Aerospace valves are devices responsible for controlling the flow of gases and liquids within the aviation system. These critical components play a vital role in directing, regulating, or controlling the flow of various fluids, including gases, liquids, fluidized solids, or slurries. This is achieved by either closing, partially obstructing, or opening passageways.
The primary types of aerospace valves include butterfly valves, rotary valves, solenoid valves, flapper-nozzle valves, poppet valves, gate valves, ball valves, and others. For instance, a butterfly valve is a quarter-turn rotational motion valve utilized to shut off flow in pipelines and regulate the flow. Materials used in the production of aerospace valves include stainless steel, titanium, aluminum, and other suitable materials. These valves find applications in fuel, hydraulic, environmental control, pneumatic, lubrication, and water & wastewater systems. The distribution channels for these valves include both original equipment manufacturers (OEM) and the aftermarket.

This aerospace valves market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The aerospace valves market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $12.72 billion in 2024 to $13.56 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth inThe aerospace industry, increased air travel, stringent safety regulations, expansion of space exploration activities and satellite deployments, increasing demand for fuel-efficient aircraft.
The aerospace valves market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $17.13 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing focus on lightweight and compact valve designs, growth in the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and drone, adoption of smart and connected valve technologies for real-time monitoring, expansion of the commercial space industry, growing demand for butterfly valves in various applications, increasing demand for forced induction devices. Major trends in the forecast period include development of environmentally friendly and sustainable valve materials, integration of 3d printing technology, emphasis on predictive maintenance capabilities, collaboration between aerospace companies and valve manufacturers, increasing use of advanced coatings for improved durability and performance.
The growing global commercial aircraft fleet is anticipated to drive the aerospace valves market. The rising number of air passengers has significantly increased the acquisition of commercial aircraft worldwide. This surge in new aircraft purchases by aerospace transport companies is expected to elevate the demand for aerospace valves, which are essential components in most critical aircraft infrastructure. For example, in June 2024, Airbus SE, a Netherlands-based provider of aeronautics, defense, and space-related services, projected the delivery of approximately 770 commercial aircraft in 2024, while also noting that the target production of 75 A320 Family aircraft per month has been postponed until 2027 due to supply chain challenges. Thus, the expansion of the global commercial aircraft fleet is expected to enhance demand for the aerospace valves market during the forecast period.
The aerospace valves market is set to benefit from the escalating demand for satellite launches. Satellite launches involve deploying spacecraft into orbit using rockets, and aerospace valves play a vital role in controlling the flow of propellants, gases, and fluids in rocket engines and other systems. A report from the Government Accountability Office, a US-based government agency, in September 2022 indicated nearly 5,500 active satellites in orbit as of spring 2022, with an estimated additional 58,000 launches predicted by 2030. Consequently, the growing demand for satellite launches is poised to contribute significantly to the expansion of the aerospace valves market.
A noteworthy trend shaping the aerospace valves market is the increasing adoption of additive manufacturing. Notably, 3D printing is gaining prominence as an additive manufacturing technique, allowing the creation of physical objects from digital designs. Companies in the aerospace valves sector are increasingly leveraging 3D printing technologies to innovate in unibody and fuselage design and production. For instance, in July, Honeywell International Inc., a US-based conglomerate corporation, unveiled a bleed pressure regulating valve manufactured through the 3D printing process. This innovative approach is set to be installed in military trainer aircraft, showcasing the industry's commitment to advanced manufacturing techniques.
Major companies in the aerospace valves market are concentrating on product innovation, such as improved emission control in pressure relief valves, to meet the rising global sustainability demands while enhancing the safety and reliability of pressure relief systems by minimizing fugitive emissions. Improved emission control in pressure relief valves involves advanced mechanisms and technologies aimed at reducing the release of harmful gases or fluids into the environment during pressure relief events, thereby ensuring better safety and environmental compliance. For example, in December 2022, Emerson Electric Co., a US-based technology, software, and engineering firm, introduced the Crosby J-Series Pressure Relief Valves. These valves are designed to enhance performance, lower costs, and boost operational efficiency, offering dependable overpressure protection. They are suitable for critical applications across various industries, including aerospace, oil and gas, and process industries.
In September 2022, Parker-Hannifin Corporation, a US-based motion and control technology company, acquired Meggitt Ltd. for around $8.2 billion. This acquisition is anticipated to significantly enhance Parker's capability to offer a comprehensive range of solutions for aircraft and aeroengine components and systems. The integration aims to utilize Meggitt's expertise in advanced materials and technologies, strengthening Parker's position in the aerospace sector. Meggitt Ltd. is a UK-based company that designs, manufactures, and supplies components and sub-systems for the aerospace and defense industries.
